My mom and Kent are the only ones who eat this stuff. My mom buys one can, her and Kent have one slice each and that's it. I can't get into it, I used to though.

making cranberry sauce is wicked easy.

1 cup sugar and 1 cup of either water or orange juice plus 1 bag of fresh cranberries.

boil for 10ish minutes until most of the berries have popped, then stick it all in the fridge to cool/gel. much much better than the canned stuff.

That's totally how we eat it here, and prefer it! We made homemade a couple of times, but the canned stuff won out by far.

I love putting a slice on top of a slice of turkey- that's good stuff!!

We have either the jellied canned stuff in can shape or homemade. I'm doing the canned stuff this year but the last two years I've done homemade. I like it both ways. I don't like the canned with berries. If I'm going to have berries, I'm going to make my own.

I don't like cranberry sauce with meat... we just didn't grow up eating sweet-ish stuff with meat smile

Thankfully DH doesn't care about it either so we don't make it/have it for Thanksgiving.
